Stranded No More: GoMechanic Launches ‘Top Assist’ to Rescue Indian Drivers

Breakdowns happen when you least expect them. For Indian drivers, roadside emergencies often lead to frustrating delays, vulnerability, and anxiety. Recognizing the need for better support, GoMechanic, India’s leading car service and repair platform, proudly introduces ‘Top Assist’, a 24×7 nationwide roadside assistance service.

With affordable pricing, seamless coverage, and rapid response times, Top Assist aims to bridge the gap in emergency support for drivers across the country.

A study by the International Road Federation revealed that 60% of Indian drivers rank quick response times as their top priority during emergencies. Yet, most existing services—often priced above ₹3,000 annually—fail to deliver on this need. Drivers frequently face long wait times, especially on highways and in rural areas, leaving them stranded and anxious.

India’s roads see over 230 million vehicles annually, with countless drivers encountering challenges like flat tires, breakdowns, and other emergencies. GoMechanic’s Top Assist is set to revolutionize roadside assistance with its comprehensive, nationwide reach. Covering more than 3,000 cities and 20,000 pin codes, it ensures that help is available anywhere, from bustling metros to remote highways.
